As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
Adds the is_process_running function to the native OS class and exposes it to script.
This is implemented on Windows and Unix platforms. A stub is provided for other platforms that do not support this function.
Documentation is updated to reflect new API function.
(cherry picked from commit f3c1232c59)
Allows detecting when a new version of the progressive web app service
worker is waiting (i.e. an update is pending), along a function to force
the update and reload all clients.
Always build with the GUI subsystem.
Redirect stdout and stderr output to the parent process console.
Use CreateProcessW for blocking `execute` calls with piped stdout and stderr (prevent console windows for popping up when used with the GUI subsystem build, and have more consistent behavior with non-blocking calls).
Add `open_console` argument to the `execute` to open a new console window (for both blocking and non-blocking calls).
Remove `interface/editor/hide_console_window` editor setting.
Remove `Toggle System Console` menu option.
Remove `set_console_visible` and `is_console_visible` functions.
Performances are not great in general, bad on Firefox, on Chrome, well,
it's an improvement compared to the way they broke ScriptProcessorNode.
I'm actually surprised this works, it involves so many allocations, but
there's no way around it when SharedArrayBuffer is not available :(.
Added as an export option "Experimental Virtual Keyboard".
There is no zoom, so text/line edit must be in the top part of the
screen, or it will get hidden by the virtual keyboard.
UTF8/Latin-1 only (I think regular UTF-8 should work out of the box in
4.0 but I can't test it).
It uses an hidden textarea or input, based on the multiline variable,
and only gets activated if the device has a touchscreen.
This could cause problems on devices with both touchscreen and a real
keyboard (although input should still work in general with some minor
focus issues). I'm thinking of a system to detect the first physical
keystroke and disable it in case, but it might do more harm then good,
so it must be well thought.
Three canvas resize policies:
- `None`: Godot window settings are ignored.
- `Project`: Godot handles the canvas like a native app (resizing it
when setting the window size).
- `Adaptive`: Canvas size will always adapt to browser window size.
Use `None` if you want to control the canvas size with custom JavaScript
code.
`OS.get_screen_scale` will now return the `window.devicePixelRatio`
value, `OS.get_screen_dpi` uses CSS media queries to find approximate
DPI value for the current display.
`OS.get_screen_size` also return the actual screen size (not the CSS
pixel size).
No longer use emscripten functions for gamepads, implement them as
library functions in library_godot_display.js instead.
This allows us to do a better job at "guessing" vendorId, productId, OS,
etc. thus allowing us to better find the remapping for the controller.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
The API is implemented in javascript, and generates C functions that can
be called from godot.
This allows much cleaner code replacing all `EM_ASM` calls in our C++
code with plain C function calls.
This also gets rid of few hacks and comes with few optimizations (e.g.
custom cursor shapes should be much faster now).
The engine now expects to emscripten FS to be setup and sync-ed before
main is called. This is exposed via `Module["initFS"]` which also allows
to setup multiple persistence paths (internal use only for now).
Additionally, FS syncing is done **once** for every loop if at least one
file in a persistent path was open for writing and closed, and if the FS
is not syncing already.
This should potentially fix issues reported by users where "autosave"
would not work on the web (never calling `syncfs` because of too many
writes).
- Refactored the Engine code, splitted across files.
- Use MODULARIZE option to build emscripten code into it's own closure.
- Optional closure compiler run for JS and generated code.
- Enable lto support (saves ~2MiB in release).
- Can now build with tools=yes (not much to see yet).
- Dropped some deprecated code for older toolchains.
- Add onExit, and onExecute JS function.
- Add files drag and drop support.
- Add support for low precessor usage mode (via offscreen render, swap).
It was removed as noted in the changelog:
https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/blob/1.39.5/ChangeLog.md#v1395-12202019
> Removed `timestamp` field from mouse, wheel, devicemotion and
> deviceorientation events. The presence of a `timestamp` on these
> events was slightly arbitrary, and populating this field caused
> a small profileable overhead that all users might not care about.
> It is easy to get a timestamp of an event by calling
> `emscripten_get_now()` or `emscripten_performance_now()` inside
> the event handler function of any event.
Fixes#34648.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
This is a new singleton where camera sources such as webcams or cameras on a mobile phone can register themselves with the Server.
Other parts of Godot can interact with this to obtain images from the camera as textures.
This work includes additions to the Visual Server to use this functionality to present the camera image in the background. This is specifically targetted at AR applications.
Being async, the first time a value is pasted GUI elements will still
return the previous one.
This at least until 'clipboardchange' window event gets implemented by
user agents.
